Back from Ireland for a few days
I got back like 3 or 4 days ago and the jet lag is still screwing with me big time. I can’t sleep for more than about 5 hours at a time and I can’t sleep normal hours at all. Normally I’m a great sleeper who can lay down 8 to 10 hours sleeping sessions where I don’t wake up once and I can usually do it day after day. So this is kinda frustrating to be tired and constantly off-schedule. But today I slept from 3:15 AM until 8:00 AM, so I’m hoping that I’ll be tired tonight and I’ll be able to go to sleep in the midnight to 2:00 AM area and then I’ll sleep for a long time.
Anyway, enough bitching. I am taking pictures for BLUFF/worldseriesofpoker.com at the WSOP today and tomorrow. I’ll be around the Rio on and off all day, so stop me and say hi if you see me wandering around with my camera.
On Monday, my friend Eric Strauss (see blog link on the right) is flying out here to hang out for a few days. Then on Tuesday, my business partner Paul (we co-owned and co-founded thepokerdb together) is coming out for a few days. So I will be busy showing them around Las Vegas. Eric is a professional photographer, so I plan on taking him out on the floor of the WSOP so he can show BLUFF what he is capable of — it might land him a job down the line. He’s waaaaay better than me at photography — it isn’t even close. Also, Paul and I are working on a new project (my idea, but I need his help to get it done) so we are hopefully going to get a lot done this week.
So that’s it for the update, here are two more videos from Ireland. The last one is in my yet-to-be-posted blog archives.
First, I’ll test the maturity of my blog readers by posting this one. It’s three brothers who perform traditional Irish music and dance. We saw this on the Aran Islands. So it might look a little weird to us Americans, but the whole thing was kinda cool. They performed about 10 songs/dances.
Second, this is a video of an uber-talented puppeteer from the street in Galway. It’s kinda hard from the video to see how good this guy really is. People kept walking in front of me (obv) and I didn’t want to make the recording too obvious because then he’d obviously come over to me and I would have had to stop recording. I threw the guy four euros after he was done because I was so impressed. Sorry I couldn’t get better video of him, but hopefully you’ll be able to get a small taste of this guy’s talent.

Hi, could you please post the link to the foreign account forms that I need to fill out. Also could you tell me why this just came up? Did you just think about it or has it been talked about a lot lately. Thanks
